The details of the lecture and the speaker are as follows.
Catch me if you can: Chasing the Neutrinos
Neutrinos are among the most elusive particles in the universe—abundant, yet barely interacting, passing through matter almost undetected. This talk will describe the adventurous trail that leads deep underground into abandoned mines, beneath kilometres of Antarctic ice, and under the Mediterranean sea to catch these invisible particles. The talk will explore how these incredible detectors work, why such extreme locations are necessary, and what discoveries they have enabled—from neutrino oscillations to multi-messenger astronomy.
Professor Subabati Goswami is a Senior Professor at the Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad, specialising in particle and astroparticle physics with an emphasis on neutrino physics. She is an elected fellow of all three science academies in the country – IAS, INSA, and NASI – as well as The World Academy of Sciences. She has received several prestigious awards, including the Humboldt Fellowship, J.C. Bose Fellowship, and Fulbright-Nehru Academic and Professional Excellence Fellowship. Currently she is the President of the Indian Physics Association. She is a strong advocate for women in science and previously chaired the Gender in Physics working group of the Indian Physics Association.
